Brancaia Rosso di Toscana 2000

Tuscany, ItalyCoffee vanilla spicy game and smoky cherry mark the nose of this serious Chianti. Rich and round at entry it offers plenty of mid-palate acidity and tannins - it's very sangiovese. The finish is appealing with smoky coffee flavours and tannins to yet dissipate. This is excellent wine and no doubt will be popular with the small sector of buyers who routinely pay $50 plus for Chianti Reserve.Tasted: 02 February 2003Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:
